Fourget the SAT's. I em goweng two make it in two kollidge with my gramer skills. Yew don't half two be an smart stewdint, all yew half two be is the mowst intillektewal stewdint in yeor klass
well...this particular test...that i took on that particular day ruined my future!!! goodbye ivy league and brand name schools!! T__T and i regret not studying for this test earlier...i never heard of this sat until freshman year of college. psh! my parents dont even know what sat is. now i realized people who are scoring high are just smart or theyve been studying for this test since 6th grade!!!
@TomoexNanami I agree that it's unfair how much this test counts for. However, some schools which are easier to get in to have better specific programs than high ranking schools. I got in to an okay state college with an 1830 and I'm part of a health sciences program which is ranked within the top 5 in the nation.
I did shit poor on the SAT and I made it on the Golden Key Honor society (4.0), by Junior Year University.Basically, if you learn slower (via verbal/rote instruction), you will do poorly on the SAT. My problem (disability) is related to verbal processing, so I've always struggled to learn from books and lectures. I scored in the average range on a couple of school administered IQ tests, but I was told my IQ was (probably) higher, because my disability interferes with conventional measurements.
@zadeh79 wow, u actually have the same problem I have. But remember, this test doesn't have a passing or failing grade. It's about what scroe u want to attain.
I received a 1490 SAT score but also took 2 SAT subject tests. I received a 600 on my SAT Math Level 2 and a 530 on my U.S. History test. I graduated with a High School GPA of about 3.7 in 2010. I am an Eagle Scout and took community college and honor courses. I am done with my 1st year at UCR. Also, UCR is a selective campus like the University of Arizona. UCR offers a decent education like other UC schools. A low SAT score is not the end of life. You can still get into a good college.
@WhatTheCucumber So you say you attend Yale correct? If that is the case you still aren't on my level. Oxford for life, have fun at your Ivy League School.
530/670/600 as an international student. Result: acceptance to university of Washington and university of Wisconsin...
I know I did terribly, but then again it was not the end of life :D. For those who did bad, like me... take a shot… perhaps something as wonderful as this will happen to you :D. GL to all ^^ and lets all, SAT failing students, conquer da worldz :D!
I don't care what people say when they say that SAT scores don't matter. It's an apitude test. When you take two people who are exactly the same when it comes to motivation, study habits and determination, the student who has the higher SAT score is more valuable as a member of society and as part of the workforce.
1. I am not a moron. 'Moron' is a medically discredited term for a individual with an I.Q. lower than or equal to 60. Not only is that offensive, that is incorrect.
2. I am a prick, and I don't care. I only need control myself when it benefits me.
3. I neglect to type two characters and I get criticized for it? Get a life.
4. Berkley is a state school in name only. Their admission rate is 22%. My cousin goes there.
5. I make careless errors all the time. I check my work.
Or maybe I just despise people of low intelligence like you (who are unaware of being of low intelligence) so much that I've made a career out of abusing them and seeing to it that they suffer for it. I don't always get a heated emotional rise out of them, but occasionally they get so worked up, it makes the effort of typing completely worth it.
i love all the people on youtube that claim to have 2300s and 2400s. One guy claims to have got a 2400 and can not even write a coherent sentence. "It not REALLY hard if you get your definitions and writing skills down." - It not really hard? Ok sure you got a 2400
yes, your not smart enough, ofcourse. Or you don't care enough for your future college...
Or you are so smart that you got the minimum score for your chosen college, enough so you enter :) I tried doing this and I ended up learning a lot anyway :(
Seriously, if I got lower than a 2200, I would literally not had a life after a low SAT score. lol. Just kidding.
I got a 2400 when I was in high school. It not REALLY hard if you get your definitions and writing skills down. And if you have a Calculus calculator, you can finish the math sections in 20 minutes.
If you really need to know...
Yes, I do go to an Ivy League School. Go Bulldogs!
@WhatTheCucumber Wow what a pure lie. You leave a comment on a bowling video only a few days ago saying that you're 15 years old, but apparently you graduated high school and started going to an ivy league school more than a month ago...LOL epic fail.
@IPawnt I started my studies at Yale when I was 14. I am just a bit ahead of everyone else, and I agree that under most circumstances, my story is unbelievable, but I am telling the truth. Where do you go?
@WhatTheCucumber Sigh. Let me offer you some advice so you can troll better next time. Before you troll youtube and brag about your fake 2400, know what it takes to get 2400. Using a calculator will not help you finish the paper faster. It does not matter what type of calculator you use. After you read the question and pick up your calculator, you would have solved it mentally already, assuming of course you are at the 2400 level.
to be fair this is true, im in a college in australia now, i was smart enough to wing all my exams and get in the best architecture school in the country, but my work ethics shit and my marks have nosedived since i got in, feels bad, man; guessing this applies to the sat too
the sat is doesnt recognize how smart you are. I got a 1600 on the sats but im in AP physics, AP Stat, and BC calculus. Dont worry if you dont do well... you can still make it into a great college if you have the other stuff.
@flipoff67 im guessing it was the time limit? i'm the same way, i can do almost any problem, i just need a lot of time. i sorta trick myself into zoning out while taking tests so i dont overthink things and lose time... it works though, because my sat scores went form a 1980 to a 2140...
i had a 2.7 and didn't give a shit about school. My parents got pissed and forced me to go to sat prep classes for most of my junior year. I got a 2040 on the test and am set on going to UC riverside.
I disagree on one part in the fact that the SAT and ACT do reflect intelligence. There are anomalies, but the score is hard to ignore. Smarter kids generally score higher and that is why these are used as benchmark scores for colleges to determine which students they accept. However, it is true that a low score doesn't mean you'll fail in life. After dropping out of school, you can be a plumber or something. And no, that job isn't bad. It can support a good life despite the misconception.
that's not true the SAT is a system were anyone can get the 2400 its the same questions just changed up even the essay part is easy I seen SATs from past years to know and there all the same, you just have to practice.
my sat score is very good. however, i have the worst organization known to man and plenty of people with lower sat scores have a higher gpa than me. also, i know people with very low scores who will likely be more successful than me because they have such amazing social skills and drive
also, i recommend that those who do poorly on the sat try the act. i have many friends who scored much higher on that
What is this video implying? That kissing the teachers butt all day to get an A is a good way to show how smart a person is? The SAT is great because if you slack off freshman year or have freaky teachers you can show how smart and dedicated you really are. Who cares about organization? They want students winning noble prizes, not becoming house maids.
lol yea..i always know the stuff, but too lazy to do the homework, the only reason i got a 2.2 is cuz i get A's in all my tests. but i did get an a in AP physics and a b in ap calculus. but ur gpa is REALLY high. u can get a LOT of scholarships wit dat
i am in ninth grade. took psat and was like "wtf?" i didnt finish half all of it. then the person next to me was saying how she wanted to be a lawyer but slept through the whole test LOL
I've taken two college prep. courses for this test...in addition to reading three different books, so I should be pretty well prepared next year. Not to mention I'm taking the PSATs this year.
I took the SAT once back in 2003 and I got a 1020 / 1600 without any prep or giving a shit. That was good enough to get me into college and now I have a B.S. in computer science. Stop sweating it people.
College is what you make of it. And if you end up studying CS at a college that isn't well known, you make sure the major is ABET accredited so that it meets a certain standard. For technical degrees, it really doesn't matter where you go and starting salaries are indeed similar. As for the outsourcing comment, was that supposed to be a personal attack or what?
You don't need to be the smartest, just smart enough.
That Asian people are sterotypicaly the Smartest Race in the world which alot of people believe this because they're really studious and are usually the "nerds" of there High School i find the Stereo type to be quite true i see it all over the place :( notice how in some movies they make the Asian man the computer Tech? Asians are the smartest and im spanish :( sucks
Asian parents are stricter 'cause in countries like China education is the only way to escape poverty, unlike here where you can get away with being pretty stupid.
Well back then it was easy too into college, and even now with the economy the scale is going down due too low admission rates. If this video was truly telling the truth, then there wouldn't be a need for the SAT's. People wouldn't have to study their ass off too get into the top colleges, which is to get a good job, and just showing you can do the work or at least motivation matters most.
The U.S education system is by far the most hypothetical in my opinion.
I completely disagree with this video... But then again I have a really high SAT score, but virtually no extra curricular activities and a moderate GPA.
well, in order to get over 2200 on the sat, ppl have to put effort into it. it's not likely that someone can get over 2200 without putting any effort. i guess that the collegeboard thinks that the ones who are willing to study for the sat tend to be the hard working ones and show their seriousness about going to colleges; and thus, they may be successful in college with this aptitude.
when people say it doesn't matter they mean you can still succeed in college and life as long as you're motivated. I received a very low SAT but had a high h.s. and college GPA and now have the opportunity of transfering to either UCLA, Yale, ASU, or FSU.
SATs are everything. You fail and you fail in life too. You wont get into a good college without a good score. I know this person who scored a 670 on the SATs, and she failed in getting into Cornell. Everyone is tested the same under the same conditions, so if you dont do well. you'll fail later on too. Now, colleges see allyour SAT scores and if one sucks, you wont have a good reputation on your college admission. Take it in the 8th grade when it doesnt count as a practice.
Wow man that's really good. Is that in college or high school because I'm in the 11th grade and in IB classes and I wanna know if I did a little bad on my math and chemistry does that count toward college please tell me
My IQ is above average. I usuallly get a 125-130 on the iq tests. However, my sat's are at the average standard (500 each section). A good sat score is the result of honest, hardworking years of acquired knowledge, K-11 grade.
I am a transfer student from an out of state college . Admissions did not really care about the sat because i showed i was good at doing college work and i received an associate's degree before transfer.
you dont need a fucking 700 on each section to get into college. What the fuck are you talking about, honestly the SAT means shit if you are a good student in other things like GPA, extra curricular, admission essay, reccomendations, etc.
The SAT is a joke and they should honestly stop giving them. The SAT measures nothing but how well you can do questions that college students cant answer within a time frame of 3 hours and 45 minutes.
Not all the time, but this video does have some truth in saying the SAT's don't always acurately indicate IQ, college & stuff. Friends I know have done well on subjects they pretty much don't do great in, & the opposite in stuff they do do well in.
I mean, it's standardized, so you really just can't stuff every kid in the world underneath it's defining scores
It's basically this standardized test that combines simple knowledge but a twisted method of asking questions. They pretty much make or break your chances of getting into colleges with elitist-attitudes.
this video was obiously created by a parent who's child did poorly on the sat's. ...Just keep telling your child that they're special in their own unique way. :)
Got a 2400 . Just got study study study and study.

However, it is true that a low score doesn't mean you'll fail in life. After dropping out of school, you can be a plumber or something. And no, that job isn't bad. It can support a good life despite the misconception.

that's not true the SAT is a system were anyone can get the 2400 its the same questions just changed up even the essay part is easy I seen SATs from past years to know and there all the same, you just have to practice.

This video has contradictons! SATs are bad! Ugh I got a 1370...
TheWiseGuy91 2 years ago
lol this is so true
my sat score is very good. however, i have the worst organization known to man and plenty of people with lower sat scores have a higher gpa than me. also, i know people with very low scores who will likely be more successful than me because they have such amazing social skills and drive
also, i recommend that those who do poorly on the sat try the act. i have many friends who scored much higher on that
good luck to you poor juniors :p

What is this video implying? That kissing the teachers butt all day to get an A is a good way to show how smart a person is? The SAT is great because if you slack off freshman year or have freaky teachers you can show how smart and dedicated you really are. Who cares about organization? They want students winning noble prizes, not becoming house maids.

I took the SAT once back in 2003 and I got a 1020 / 1600 without any prep or giving a shit. That was good enough to get me into college and now I have a B.S. in computer science. Stop sweating it people.

Although you end up with a similar salary for people with Bachelors in comp sci as a start anyway, I guess.

Tsaii 2 years ago
College is what you make of it. And if you end up studying CS at a college that isn't well known, you make sure the major is ABET accredited so that it meets a certain standard. For technical degrees, it really doesn't matter where you go and starting salaries are indeed similar. As for the outsourcing comment, was that supposed to be a personal attack or what?
You don't need to be the smartest, just smart enough.

no, it is actually 1500/1600 or above

you're not going to get into Harvard with a measly 2100 unless you have crazy extracurriculars, are a legacy, or are black.

Well back then it was easy too into college, and even now with the economy the scale is going down due too low admission rates. If this video was truly telling the truth, then there wouldn't be a need for the SAT's. People wouldn't have to study their ass off too get into the top colleges, which is to get a good job, and just showing you can do the work or at least motivation matters most.
The U.S education system is by far the most hypothetical in my opinion.

well, in order to get over 2200 on the sat, ppl have to put effort into it. it's not likely that someone can get over 2200 without putting any effort. i guess that the collegeboard thinks that the ones who are willing to study for the sat tend to be the hard working ones and show their seriousness about going to colleges; and thus, they may be successful in college with this aptitude.

when people say it doesn't matter they mean you can still succeed in college and life as long as you're motivated. I received a very low SAT but had a high h.s. and college GPA and now have the opportunity of transfering to either UCLA, Yale, ASU, or FSU.

SATs are everything. You fail and you fail in life too. You wont get into a good college without a good score. I know this person who scored a 670 on the SATs, and she failed in getting into Cornell. Everyone is tested the same under the same conditions, so if you dont do well. you'll fail later on too. Now, colleges see allyour SAT scores and if one sucks, you wont have a good reputation on your college admission. Take it in the 8th grade when it doesnt count as a practice.

My IQ is above average. I usuallly get a 125-130 on the iq tests. However, my sat's are at the average standard (500 each section). A good sat score is the result of honest, hardworking years of acquired knowledge, K-11 grade.

You wont get into a good college without a 700 or above on each section. An IQ of 125 is considered to be very average. Go study.

you dont need a fucking 700 on each section to get into college. What the fuck are you talking about, honestly the SAT means shit if you are a good student in other things like GPA, extra curricular, admission essay, reccomendations, etc.
The SAT is a joke and they should honestly stop giving them. The SAT measures nothing but how well you can do questions that college students cant answer within a time frame of 3 hours and 45 minutes.

Not all the time, but this video does have some truth in saying the SAT's don't always acurately indicate IQ, college & stuff. Friends I know have done well on subjects they pretty much don't do great in, & the opposite in stuff they do do well in.
I mean, it's standardized, so you really just can't stuff every kid in the world underneath it's defining scores
